From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

well yeah, it surely is. win10 iot ltsc itself is defo getting support till 2032, but massgrave's hwid/tsforge may get blocked at some point, though most people highly doubt that since m$ doesn't really care at this point. (heck, the massgrave repos are hosted on m$ owned github) in addition to that, massgrave's hwid mode generates an hwid on microsoft's servers just like genuine windows licenses, so i'm pretty sure it'll remain working, even if the method to generate hwid gets blocked somehow..
i do believe switching to a gnu/linux distro is a much better choice, but this is also an option if your relatives really prefer using windows or need to.
